That's hard to answer because of the lack of details. How long have you been dating? What age group are we talking about? Do you know much about his family? How is your relationship otherwise. There could be a ton of different reasons why he's not doing this.

I have had this conversation with friends many times. Each of us have different reason. Two of us feel like they do not want to bring them into the family relationship until it becomes serious or possible marriage material. Another set of friends are an interacial couple. She was afraid to introduce to her family because of how her parents would react. They dated for almost 3 years and even lived together and her parents never knew. When I was in the dating game, I would not even let the guy I was dating come to my house until after a couple of dates. People are crazy these days. I did not want the person I just met to know where I lived until I felt comfortable with them. It was about a month before they would meet my parents. I did not meet my husbands parents until after we dated for about 6 months. They lived four hours away.
It is all in how you view the relationship. How serious are you? Where is this going? How long have you been dating? How close are you and your partner to your families?

When me and my fiance first got together. He would always either come to my house or if i went to pick him up I had to meet him down the road from there house and drop him off there. But then after about four months or so we finally went to meet them. And we are still doing great after a year in a half (which i know is not a long time) and I seem to get along with his family. I think it was just that he was kinda afraid of what we might think of each other. But then everything was fine. But really it depends on how long you guys have been together I guess. maybe if you have not talked to him about it yet you should just ask him if there is a reason he doesn't want you guys to meet yet. Good luck with the relationship though.

I am sorry but I would feel that there is a reason that you are not being introduced to his family...Has he introduced you to any friends of his??? Have you introduced him to your family?? if so, did he want to meet them? I would be looking into this relationship and wondering if it is a realatioship at all. Have you talked to him about this? Maybe you could hint around about meeting them, or better yet just ask him why you have not meet them. If all he comes up with are excuses, dump him and move on..More than likely there is something he does not want you to know or find out about after meeting them. This to me would throw up a red flag about your realationship.
God bless and Good Luck

How long have you two been together? Talk to him and ask him why he hasn't been introduced you to his family yet. He may just want to wait until he knows that you are the girl for him. Don't get too upset.

if its a big deal in your country to be introduced to the family and he isnt doing it, then i would say there is a problem. How long have you two been dating? if its hasnt been for long, maybe thats why. If you all been dating for a while, then maybe somethings up. I would ask him, maybe he dosnt like his family and dont want you to meet them in fear of you not liking them.

Well if my boyfriend didn't introduce me to his family, that mean he isn't serious about our relationship. I will feel that he is ashamed of me or I am not good enough for his family.

You need to have a serious talk with your boyfriend as I forgot don't cut it. It seems like he doesnt want to introduce you. If that is the case then why are you with him is a question you should ask yourself.

Girl I feel you on this. My bf didn't introduce me to his family for 3 YEARS. I always felt like he had something to hide or like he was cheating on me. He wasn't cheating, and Me and his family get along great. If u don't want to just wait and meet them when he is ready for u to meet them, give him an ultimatum.

I would think that it would depend on how long you have been dating.
If you just started to date then........I would say don't worry about it.
If you have been dating a few months then you might just want to ask him.
You have to realize that him not introducing you to his family may have NOTHING to do with you........you don't know his family so you dont know what they are like.....maybe there
is something about his family that he isn't ready to let you in on yet.
Talk to him.
